Hertzler Doings-July 25-31, 2016

Have done close to 70 jars of all kinds of pickles and more will be added soon once the 7 day crock pickles are finished. You know what you're getting for Christmas, anyway.

Susan's back from the shore and we are having a good time together.
She's picking and we're both processing and freezing squash and of course the cucumbers. Tomatoes are just starting.

Alli has announced her pregnancy on facebook. That was fun. A picture of N holding the sonogram photo. "The best picture of our two kids together." Something like that. He wasn't happy because she turned off his movie in order to get him focused. It looks like he's upset about having a sibling.

Michael and Jessica went up to Pa for their getaway. Had a nice time with the family and with Jim and Rosalee, too.

Philip has been working on his lawn but this crazy storm washed his seed away and he'll have to reconstruct and start over. He's been making bread, pies, Stromboli, etc. Is going to bake some things for the bake sale.

Freeman's been working night shift for nearly 4 months. Phil's been going out and helping him for several hours a night this week.

Today, Thursday the 28th, I'm heading out to Farmville to get my car inspected. Am hoping to make cucumber sushi before I go to treat Judy to lunch. Dianna's loaning me her car to get around. Have lots of stops so am hoping to go out early to get my running around done before the inspection.

It stormed last night and the night before. We needed the rain. Our friends, Paul and Lisa, had a lot of electrical damage. And other friends, the Landis', had a huge tree get struck by lightning and go down right beside their house, brushing the sides as it went down.

I heard that we're singing hymns this Sunday at church. That's exciting! So, if I don't get to write again, there's a little snapshot into our lives.

Oh, Emma turned 10! She's Gil and Lindsay's oldest. Happy Birthday Emma Dear!

Michael and Jessica moved on Sat. They invited everyone over Sunday evening who helped them move. She had stayed up until 1 Sunday morning and got up again at 6 and she had their house looking like a home. I don't know how she did it. It's beautiful and warm.
